Study Notes
Heat of Dilution
- The heat of dilution decreases gradually, and eventually, increasing the dilution produces no further heat change.
- This occurs when there are 800-1000 moles of water to one mole of solute, a stage called infinite dilution.
- The heat of solution is expressed as: NaCl(s) + H2O → NaCl(aq) → Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) with a ∆Hsoln = +4.98 kJ mol-1.
Hydration
- When ionic compounds are dissolved in water, they are dissociated into ions.
- Negative ions are surrounded by water molecules, with the partial positively charged hydrogen atoms of water surrounding and attracting the anions with electrostatic forces of attraction.
- Similarly, positive ions of the solute create attractions with partial negative oxygen atoms of water molecules.
- The process of water molecules surrounding and interacting with solute ions or molecules is called hydration.
- The number of water molecules surrounding a given ion depends on the size of the ions and the magnitude of its charge (charge/area).
Concentration Units
- Parts per million (ppm) is a unit used for very low concentrations of solutions, e.g., to express the impurities of substances in water.
- ppm = Mass of solute x 10^6 / Mass of solution.
Interconversion of Concentration Units
- It is possible to convert one unit of concentration into another, such as converting molarity to molality or w/w percentage.
- This conversion is done if we know the formula masses and the densities of the solutes or solutions.
Energetics of Solution
- The heat of solution can be exothermic (releasing heat) or endothermic (absorbing heat).
- The energetics of solution involve the heat of solution, which can be calculated using the heat of hydration and the lattice energy of the solute.
Solubility Curves
- Solubility curves are graphical representations of the temperature vs. solubility of a solution.
- There are two types of solubility curves: continuous and discontinuous.
- Continuous solubility curves show a gradual change in solubility with temperature, while discontinuous solubility curves show sudden changes in solubility.
Applications of Boiling Point Elevation and Freezing Point Depression
- The presence of a solute increases the liquid range of the solution by raising the boiling point and lowering the freezing point.
- This phenomenon has important applications, such as the use of antifreeze in the radiator of an automobile.
